Here's the KenPom rankings of teams in the men's NCAA basketball tourney. Takes each team's offensive ranking and defensive ranking. More weight to the offensive ranking, otherwise the lowest total of the two makes for the highest ranked team.
Saw another tweet advising to stick with the top seeds more this year than ever, for similar reasons. Now Twitter's got these prognosticators in my algorithm, so I'm seeing even more of these NCAA tweets.
I used these rankings to pick my NCAA bracket, which called for just 2 or 3 upsets a long the way. My Final Four was Duke over Florida and Arizona over Michigan, with Duke winning the whole thing.
First time I've ever been to a betting website. Had to take a shower afterwards.
